M. Durbin “Engineering Circuit Analysis”, Eighth edition, McGraw-Hill.

4 Chapter 1: Introduction
Circuit theory: A field as diverse as electrical engineering Electric circuits: common for EE. : A mathematical model, which approximates the behavior of an actual electric system

5 Overview: Linear circuit analysis:
Resistive circuit analysis: introduce a number of very powerful techniques, such as nodal analysis, mesh analysis, superposition, etc. time-domain analysis: allow capacitors and inductors to be included in a circuit. frequency-domain analysis: transform differential equations into more easily managed algebraic equations.

6 Relationship: Relationship of Circuit Analysis to Engineering:
Learning how to analyze a problem. To learn how to •To be methodical •To determine the goal of a particular problem •To work with the information given to develop a plan of attack •To implement the plan to obtain a solution •To verify that the proposed solution is accurate

7 Analysis and Design: This text is focused on developing our ability to analyze and solve problem. Developing our design skills comes less naturally to us than developing our analytical skills.

8 Computer-Aided Analysis:
Modern circuit analysis software is rapidly increasing in its level of integration. We need to have a solid understanding of how circuits work in order to develop an ability to design them.

9 Problem-Solving: A suggested problem- solving flow chart

10 Problem-Solving: Develop the skills to successfully attack the
unsolved problems Identify what’s given and what’s to be found Sketch a circuit diagram or other visual model label, reference, redraw to simple form simplified Think of several solution methods and a way of choosing among them Calculate a solution paper and pencil calculator Use your creativity Test your solution

Chapter 2: Basic Components and Electric Circuits

12 Objectives: Definition of basic electrical quantities and associated units The relationship between charge, current, voltage, and power The passive sign convention Dependent and independent voltage and current sources The behavior of the resistor and Ohm’s law

13 Units and Scales: TABLE :2.1 SI Base Units
In order to state the value of some measurable quantity, we must give both a number and a unit, such as “3 meters. The most frequently used system of units is the International System of Units (abbreviated SI in all languages). TABLE :2.1 SI Base Units Base Quantity length Name meter Symbol m mass kilogram kg time electric current thermodynamic temperature amount of substance second ampere kelvin mole s A K mol luminous intensity candela cd The fundamental unit of work or energy is the joule (J). One joule = in SI base units) The fundamental unit of power is the watt (W), defined as 1 J/s.

14 Units and Scales: TABLE 2.2 SI Prefixes

15 Charge: There are two types of charge:
positive (corresponding to a proton) and negative (corresponding to an electron). the fundamental unit of charge is the coulomb (C). It is defined in terms of the ampere by counting the total charge that passes through an arbitrary cross section of a wire during an interval of one second; one coulomb is measured each second for a wire carrying a current of 1 ampere (Fig. 2.1). In this system of units, a single electron has a charge of and a single proton has a charge of A quantity of charge that does not change with time is typically represented by Q. The instantaneous amount of charge (which may or may not be time-invariant) is commonly represented by q(t), or simply q.

16 Current: Electrical current is the time rate of flow of electrical charges through a conductor or circuit element. Current is symbolized by I or i , and so The unit of current is the ampere (A), It is commonly abbreviated as an “amp,”. One ampere equals 1 coulomb per second. (A=C/s). The charge transferred between time tₒ and t may be expressed as a definite integral: The total charge transferred over all time is thus given by

17 Current:

18 Current: Two different methods of labeling the same current.
(a, b) Incomplete, improper, and incorrect definitions of a current. (c) the correct definition of i1(t).

19 Current:

20 Voltage: An electrical voltage (or a potential difference) exists between two terminals is a measure of the work required to move charge through the element. The unit of voltage is the volt (V), and 1 volt is the same as 1 J/C. Voltage is represented by V or v. A voltage can exist between a pair of electrical terminals whether a current is flowing or not. Voltages are assigned polarities that indicates the direction of energy flow. The voltage is indicated by a plus-minus pair of algebraic signs.

21 Voltage: (a, b) These are inadequate definitions of a voltage. (c) A correct definition includes both a symbol for the variable and a plus- minus symbol pair. (a, b) Terminal B is 5 V positive with respect to terminal A; (c, d) terminal A is 5 V positive with respect to terminal B.

22 Power: Passive sign convention It is represented by P or p.
Its unit is watts (W) Passive sign convention If a positive current is entering a positive terminal of an element, then the energy is supplied to the element (or the element absorbs the power). If a positive current is entering a negative terminal of an element, then the energy is supplied by the element (or the element generates the power).

24 Power: Compute the power absorbed by each part.

25 Power: Compute the power delivered by each part.

26 Energy calculation:

27 Sources: Symbol for an independent current source.
Symbol for independent voltage source: (a) DC voltage source; (b) battery; (c) ac voltage source. The four different types of dependent sources: current-controlled current source; (CCC) voltage-controlled current source; (VCC) voltage-controlled voltage source; (VCV) current-controlled voltage source. (CCV)

28 Dependant sources

29 Example: In the circuit below ,if v2 is known to be 3 V, find vL .

30 Example: Find the power ofeach element in the circuit below.

31 Network and Circuits: The interconnection of two or more simple circuit elements forms and electrical network. If the network contains at least one closed path, it is also an electric circuit.

32 Ohm’s Law: Ohm’s law states that the voltage across conducting materials is directly proportional to the current flowing through the material where the constant of proportionality R is called the resistance. The unit of resistance is the ohm, which is 1 V/A and customarily abbreviated by a capital omega, Ω.

33 Ohm’s Law: passive element: R, L, C active element: sources
